I'll update this list as people let me know. Please contact the venue (Blue Dolphin) directly to book your rooms as required. Be sure to mention the gathering to get a discount. The Friday is 31st October.

I tried to book at Blue Dolphin but they wanted a deposit of one nights accommodation to confirm the booking. This many months out, I felt that I didn't want to give them a couple hundred dollars, so I have elected to wait. I also found out they only have one 3 bedroom unit and it is now booked out for that weekend.

GlennWe drove down to Yamba today and had a look around the Blue Dolphin Resort.

Pros: Very tidy and well organised resort Friendly and obliging service Good clean accommodation Good community areas. One outside under cover, the other enclosed, both with several barbies. Wash bay for the boats Safe parking for cars and boat next to cabins (depending on cabin type chosen) WSV 1-9 have space

Cons: Due to the ramp taper the boat ramp is not suitable to our boats that have to be floated off. Both at high and low tide. However 50 metres down the road is a good public ramp with adequate trailer parking. The pontoons at both ramps have minimal tie up spots, but there is probably enough space at the BDR pontoon for the 4-5 Glen-L boats.

Thanks Alan.No show stoppers here. Do we want to plan some river runs?

Lauren & I wish we would come back! But, not going to happen. It's very gratifying that you are going for AG2. I think you learned last year about the friendships that are made doing this. Nobody can tell you the value. You have to experience it.

Hi everyone ,will be there with my son and boat hopefully . Don't know if the boat will make the water as we are going to WA for approx. 3 months , back in mid Oct, with just enough time to Reg the trailerIan

AG2 is approaching quickly. In order to plan activities at the AG2, those who intend coming and have not already indicated, could you make sure you add your name and particulars to the list. We hope to take a bit of action footage at the gathering so could those with a camcorder or the like please bring it along. Look forward to seeing you there.ozzieboat
